Why just 18?

Well, there’s a ring to it. (Get it? Eighteen kids in the year 2018? We’re pretty clever over here at Mile High Sports, you see.)

The truth is there could easily be 180, or 1,800. With the boom of population, there are thousands of young athletes doing remarkable things in Colorado. There are only 18 because it’s 2018, and because there are only so many pages in a magazine.

But here’s a promise: Pay mind to what this particular group of student-athletes is up to in 2018 and you’ll be impressed. Good athletes. Good students. Good kids. We’ll stand by that.

No matter how many we write about, it will never be enough. But what each of them does is plenty.
